My Outer Labia Piercings

2009-02-06T16:47:00.000-08:00

I got my outer labia pierced. Got one on each side. I just did this last night and it was very painful. I know there are people who will probably say otherwise and I think either they can't feel their junk or they are lying. This is not about pain tolerance. I have a pretty high pain tolerance hell I've had two babies. I'm not a sissy about pain at all and I will say it was fucking painful. The outer labia is the outer lips of your vagina and its all fat there so they are piercing through a chunk of meat. I yelled owe fuck and that was pretty much it for the first one. The second one I was silent because I knew what to expect that's not to say it didn't hurt like a son of a bitch too because trust me it hurt just as much as the first one but it was knowing exactly what the pain felt like that allowed me to brace myself for it. It's quick and its over but its a painful ass experience. My friend Tamara went with me and she was holding both my hands and out of reaction I started sitting up with the top part of my body only so I didn't jerk or anything but I had my mouth open like I was going to bite her and that was purely a pain reaction no thinking too it. Luckily I snapped out of that quick enough to not actually bite her. She said she wouldn't have been mad but she's just a super good friend so that's why she was willing to get bit. It was a new bonding experience for us too she saw my junk and saw it get pierce lmao! I would still recommend the piercing because it looks really nice and the pain goes away super fast. I woke up this morning and had to check and see if it was a dream because I felt no pain at all. It is a bit bloody but that is okay. So if anyone is planning on getting it done just make sure you bring a pad with you and bring a good friend who doesn't mind getting bit! HAHA

my recent obsession

2008-10-27T11:32:00.000-07:00

So I was in Wal-Mart one day and I happened by the book section out of boredom. I came across a book that looked interesting and I knew I had heard the title before. It is called Twilight. Well I realized it was a series and remembered a good friend of mine had told me she was reading it. So I figured what the heck give the first one a shot and if I like it maybe I'll buy the rest. So I bought it and went home. I am not the hugest reader so I wasn't in that big of a hurry to start reading it. But then I finally had some time and I dug into it and let me tell you I could not put it down! I got about halfway through the book and immediately ran out searching two different stores for the other three because I didn't want to have to wait in between books. So it takes me less than a week to read all four of these books because I made time for them. This series has brought me back into the world of reading. I became so obsessed that I really could not stop reading them. I hated running errands because it meant less time for my obsession. I mean of coures I'm a mother so I can't sit around and read all day but I was staying up late and I mean extremely late every night just to read these books. Now that I have read them all I feel sad and lonely without my books to keep me company. So I'm searching for a new series to entertain me and praying I find the same obsessive nature in some other series. At the same time I'm highly doubting that will happen. If anyone has any recommendations I am open to suggestions. Especially vampire books I am so obsessed at this point that I would love a good vampire series.

Can you believe it has been 7 years? I can not even fathom the idea that that was so long ago. I think we all need to take a moment today and remember the events of the tragedy we all watched on the news and so many lived. I would just like to say that I will never forget...and I hope that no one else does either.

It has been a long time...

2008-09-11T14:00:00.000-07:00

I really have not posted anything recently so here is a good update on my life:
I am back in school for psychology. I'm going to University of Phoenix online. Which is really the only way I can go to school. I am busy busy busy! My oldest daughter is now three years old, potty trained, and now going to preschool! My youngest daughter is now one year old, walking since like 10 1/2 months, and just busy all the time! I have been busy with kids, husband, school, and house work. And yes in that order hehe! That is about it for me! We also got a puppy I know I haven't mentioned him, shame on me! A rednose pitbull puppy who is now 4 1/2 months old! He's grown fast too! His name is Maximus!

Considering...

2007-04-19T13:38:00.000-07:00

I am seriously considering keeping a more accurate log of my labor and delivery this time around. I read about a lady who blogged through her whole labor. I don't necessarily want to be online doing that but I was thinking maybe typing it up on word and then pasting it all here later. I think it might be a nice way to remember every last detail. I think I remember everything from my first daughters labor and delivery but along the way you probably forget some of that. And heck its one way of allowing people to see what really goes on in your head while your in active labor! Just a random thought...not sure I'm going to do it yet...

parenting issues...

2007-04-19T13:27:00.000-07:00

Every morning my daughter watches her morning PBS shows. I know they tell you not to let them watch tv at such a young age but she absolutely loves her PBS shows. She's not even two years old now and she loves television. I think in parenting you have to understand that you may come in with all the "answers" but I guarantee you will change your mind about things as you go along. For instance I swore up and down my child will never watch tv until she is much older...and heck in the hospital that first night after we had her the tv was on and she was attracted to it. I should have known at that moment that tv was just a part of all of our lives forever. Also I used to say no no no way my kid was gonna be a french fry addict and no way was she going to drink soda or eat any sort of fast foods. Please, my kid demands french fries and she knows what is in that paper sack and she wants it now!!!! When thinking about these sorts of things I often wonder who puts these ideas in our heads that we absolutely should not allow our children to do the same things we do...it's not like I'm giving her booze or lighting up a cigarette for her but people will still continue to look down on some of the things I allow my child to do or have. I think people should just shut up and get over the fact that they can't control every single thing in the world...plus I think that if you are judgemental than you either have no children or you are simply unrealistic and there will come a time that that child will show you the reality of the world. As long as you do your best and take care of your children and love them with all you have that should be enough but for some people out there it just isn't. Also, who in the world decided one day that we should turn our children into a competition for the parents. I do not care if my child does things before the timeline or after as long as she eventually gets there developmentally I'm not worried. And I think you are seriously punishing your kids if you make everything such a race all the time. I think those kids will end up in serious therapy as adults. Please stop putting such pressure on them, they will succeed in life if you simply support them and allow the the freedom to be themselves. I could go on and on about that...I just don't understand why some parents feel the need to compete...

Time for yourself as a mother...

2007-04-19T12:06:00.000-07:00

I find that time for myself includes never. I can be online doing some of my random searches or checking email and I'm constantly being pulled away from it for something. I can be in the shower and shes right there with me unless she is asleep. Heck, even going to the bathroom isn't a private matter as a mother of a toddler. My daughter is almost always right at my feet or close by. Which I love, don't get me wrong being a mother is the best part of my life. My daughter has taught me more about life than anyone or anything ever could. She has truly given meaning to my life in a way nothing else could. I just find it humorous how every moment of every day its all her all the time. Every time I go to run an errand she has to go with me or she will be very upset. She has a wonderful father but I am the stay at home parent so she is with me more than with him. She is a total daddy's girl the second he walks in the door but she then she wants both of us not just one or the other. She also asks about him all day long and I remind her he is at work and that seems to make her feel at ease. I just never realized how needy children truly are when they are so young. I guess you can't really know until you have children. I love it though I really do.

Reality TV Rant

2007-04-19T11:35:00.000-07:00

There's a big trend in new television series now and that is for them to be reality shows. At first I thought the concept was overrated. Sure I watched the new ones that came out and I would at least give them each a chance but it seemed to be over the top. Then something happened to me that happens to soooo many of us everyday, I got hooked. I can not stay away from reality tv. I see a new preview for one and automatically I'm either putting a reminder in my phone or if it is coming up soon enough I am setting a reminder timer on my DVR. I can't help myself anymore. I have even gotten my husband to watch them with me, although he won't watch all of them he will sit through some of the more amusing ones like Flavor of Love season one and two and I Love New York. Also there is a new one out called Charm School that is based on helping these girls become more classy. I find these shows addicting and hilarious. My husband thinks I'm nuts for continually watching such shows but thats just part of my life now. I personally watch reality tv every single day. I'm not kidding I watch A Baby Story on TLC and Bringing Home Baby as well. Occasionally I watch the Surviving Motherhood one as well. I am hooked on it what can I say. Me personally I would not have wanted cameramen in my labor room when I have my first daughter and I certainly will not be having any with this delivery either. However, I love watching these women go through the whole process and have those little tiny babies to take care of. It's a truly amazing show. At any rate the reality television shows out there are bringing in huge bucks I'm sure. I don't know how they can hook you so good into these shows but you literally will be anticipating the next episode and when it comes it goes by two fast and you wait some more. That's probably how you got to the point of reading these blogs...you are waiting for some reality shows new episode and happened to do a search and voila you got blogs. I love watching them and I will continue to love them although it may seem nuts.
